I’ve entered the novelty cake category and the theme is ‘Anything goes’. So in summary my cake can be themed as anything but it cannot look like a cake.

So how hard could it be to think of a theme for the competition?

I’ve been overwhelmed by friends and family suggesting different ideas. Many have suggested to design a cake that’s similar to my area of work- including an amputated leg!!

I am still open for ideas but I think I might do my cake based on a fairytale theme.

I figured this type of cake can be open for interpretation as well as being bright and colourful.

I made a miniature Gnome on a mushroom as an idea to consider for the competition. He was a rushed job so his face does look a little funny (especially his nose). I’m thinking I might try to re use the mushroom and put a fairy on top instead.
